A container has 3 3/8 = 27/8 pounds of flour.
Each student gets 3/16 pound of flour.

If each student in the cooking class needs 3/16 pound of flour and you want to know how many students are in the class, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3 3/8 pounds of flour / 3/16 = 27/8 / 3/16 = 27/8 * 16/3 = 18 students

Result: 18 students are in the cooking class.

How much more would $1,000 earn in 5 years in an account compounded continuously than an account compounded quarterly if the int

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: There is a difference of $ 1.0228.

Explanation: Given, initial amount or principal = $ 1000,

Time= 5 years and given compound rate of interest = $3.7%

Now, Since the amount in compound continuously,

$A= Pe^{rt}$ , where, r is the rate of compound interest, P is the principal amount and t is the time.

Here, P=$ 1000, t=5 years and r= $3.7%,

Thus, amount in compound continuously , $A=1000e^{3.7\times5/100}$

⇒ $A=1000e^{18.5}=1000\times 1.20321844013=1203.21844013$

Therefore, interest in this compound continuously rate =1203.21844013-1000=203.21844013

now, Since the amount in compound quarterly,

$A=P(1+\frac{r/4}{100} )^{4t}$ , where, r is the rate of compound interest, P is the principal amount and t is the time.

Thus, amount in compound quarterly, $A=1000(1+\frac{3.7/4}{100} )^{4\times5}$

⇒ $A=1000(1+\frac{3.7}{400} )^{20}$

⇒ $A= 1202.19567617$

Therefore, interest in this compound quarterly rate=1202.19567617-1000=202.19567617

So, the difference in these interests=203.21844013-202.19567617=1.02276396 ≈1.0228
